All the zoomers I know refuse to install adblock

this will change nothing

Refuse? Why?

According to my kids there's a few flash game sites like y8 (perhaps not flash, IIRC that got killed off, but you get the idea) where you're blocked for adblocking. As soon as I have white listed a site they'll find a new one. So they have ublock origin installed, but permanently switched off.

And for some reason at least one kid actually likes youtube ads smh

Kids these days with their loving ads and what not. I came from a simpler time where we hated ads with a passion. :shakes fist:
